30 Is Not Enough!

Oh dear, I don't seem to have enough "leave" for this year... how nice if I could buy "leave" from my male colleague who always seem to have "abundant!"   My eyes always "drool" when I see his balance of leave.... I wouldn't mind paying RM10 for one day of leave... if only I could buy some days leave.... RM20 per leave also I will grab!!

By the way, why is it called LEAVE?  Leaving the office?  " How much leave do you have left?"   English language is truly amazing!

Coming back to my topic, I think I will have to resort taking "No Pay Leave" in the later part of the year.  One day = RM......$$ .....flying away.....

But when I imagine the cooling weather and sunny skies running through my mind, the "Pay Cut" will be worth every cent deducted.

So... how many days leave do you have annually?  Are they sufficient for you?  From the very first day I started working, I had 7 days only.. (I remember not finishing them in a year)... then 14 days... after that 20 (that was when I got married and the leave was never enough.... )... and now I have 30 days ... and STILL never say Enough!

Gosh... I heard someone telling me to go for 365 days of holidays!!

  1. Teachers have 7 days per annum. There is a misconception about teachers getting lots of holidays e.g. school holidays. For your info, teachers are always on call, before holidays, during holidays, after holidays. We are required to go to school on Sundays when there is a function and we work for free. So far, none of us has ever been paid OT for the extra work we do. Our status is always: TETAP (kerja gila) DAN BERPENCEN (separuh mati)!

  13. My company don't have leave policy. We can only take leave based on boss's mood. If good mood, our leaves approved. If he is unhappy, leave not approved and we got 'machine gun' by him somemore.... sad!
